Typing In The Rain

Why hasn't anyone come up with a waterproof laptop computer? Come on. I mean, think of all the uses for this computer. You could type in the rain, underwater while scuba diving, or in the bath or shower (which is where I came up with this idea).

In a Seinfeld episode, Kramer installs a garbage disposal in his bathtub so that he can conserve water by showering and peeling his vegetables at the same time. Why not shower and type at the same time? For some reason I get creative ideas when I'm in the shower. Some people sing. I think. This is the time that I'm alone with my thoughts, no distractions, just soap suds and me.

As I was showering tonight (this is a blog about personal information, right?) I came up with a story idea. I had to quickly exit the shower, soap suds and all, to find my laptop and type away my ideas before I would forget them. If I had a waterproof laptop, I could have just brought it into the shower with me and typed away. If I had a garbage disposal, I could have prepared tomorrow night's dinner as well.

I'm a big believer in time management and utilizing each moment as efficiently as possible. Next time someone is in the market to invent something, think of the waterproof laptop or maybe even a waterless shower, so I can use my own laptop. It wouldn't be good to let creativity go down the drain.
